Change

It's been a long time hoping
But trust it change gone come
We didn't have those leaders step up
So their energy and soul would be wasted
We didn't have to see that many deaths
To become visual once again
It's time to unite and bring change once again
The past few years we have seen the changes
Witnessing the first African-American 
To take place as out president
Witnessing a cop be charge for 
Killing an innocent citizen
These are the changes that begins ours
It take more than one person to make a change
So it's now up to you 
To put away the thought of our differences 
Grab a hand and unite
To make a change we all can be happy with.
